Is marriage a social trap?

Gone are the ages where indian men thought marriages are made in heaven. Technology has made the world a smaller place letting the common indian man to know the culture of mankind across the globe. Global knowledge has made the man to think that the institution of indian marriage itself as a 'Social Trap'.. A forcible ritual wherein all their happiness and freedom is burried down and they are loaded with intolerable responsibilities.

 

Is marriage really a social trap? Is it so hard to stand in a marriage loading yourself with frustation

and nothing else?  It all depends on how are are going to take and lead. If he takes it as a trap, its going to be a trap for him forever. It is purely satisfying each others needs in many ways of life. be it social,economical, physical, natural and so on. People who dont have this simple understanding, exaggerate this subject and take it to a different level.

 

The man and women (with an understanding) entering into the relationship are bind physically and

emotionally thus establishing a spiritual relationship, which outweighs the physical relationship. The

emotional wavelength thus developed sustains the relationship which sprouts and spreads sporadic joy forever in their life.

 

Any man or women can seperate from their partner and walk out free as they feel like. This type of freedom is what expected by many man. But have you ever felt.. the feeling of being binded with a person makes another feel strong that he has a soul mate, whom he can rely on at any cause? Sense of belonging inspires the individual to perform their obligations in social and professional areas. This can be the most stongest push for any human being to keep moving in life.

 

Think the other way round.. There will be an emptiness in the minds of people who dont have a person to fall back. An emptiness questioning what is the purpose of this life and what he is going to attain and for whom? Is he going to leave a footprint back for nobody else? Iam not talking about yogis here. Iam talking about a common man.

 

Indian marriages here especially have such a great combination of individual and social bonds which

present day man fails to recognise. He talks about the binding culture, forcing society, harassing wife

and emotional relations around. But does he really hate it from the heart? Is he not benefited by the same in any way?  He strongly denies the fact that he is more benefited than suffer. He feels frustrated himself thinking he is forced to adjust,understand and live with all the complications of being in a marriage. Is the same not applicable for a relationship he finds himself in any other form than a instituion called marriage?

 

Truly speaking.. marriage brings in heaven in a man's life loaded with many good things under the sun. And also brings along problems to show him the warmth of the sun. Only when you are suffer, you know the goodness of being loved and caressed. Everything in this world has two sides. Joy and sorrow.. in whatever you encounter. Lets enjoy it as it comes and live the fullest.
